The natural environment represents a complex set of inter-relationships among flora, fauna, land forms, geological structure, and atmospheric composition. These biophysical components interact to form ecosystem at various scales that define the surface characters of the earth. They also define renewable and non-renewable finite source bases for human activity. Maps have traditionally been used to explore the Earth's environmental condition and to exploit its natural resources.

Abstract


The natural environment represents a complex set of inter-relationships among flora, fauna, land forms, geological structure, and atmospheric composition. These biophysical components interact to form ecosystem at various scales that define the surface characters of the earth. They also define renewable and non-renewable finite source bases for human activity. Maps have traditionally been used to explore the Earth's environmental condition and to exploit its natural resources.
